Hi guys
I am not sure where everyone is getting their information from and to be honest I don't care. Its not reliable info.
What I tell you is from the manufacturers direct and is info they give to all distributors. I also give you honest opinions on the car as one of their drivers.
I really can't help if people want to believe others - I really can't help there.

The bodies that we have in stock and you see painted on my car are the current body to be released with the car. We had many in stock and nearly all sold all over the world. To my current knowledge we are the only ones that have the bodies unless other distributors have now got them.

I just don't know what else I can tell you all.
Here is my car sitting on the grid only 2 weeks ago at the EPR BRCA National

I talked to the Austrian Distributor of Serpent and he phoned Serpent directly who told them exactly what Billy Easton wrote. End of July the kits will ship from China and will arrive in Europe (and i think also the US) in the first week of August.

I doubt it as when i was taking to Hupo they haven't even started on the manual, as they are still making/testing parts for it.

Realistically I would think it's going to be after the worlds now, so September/November time.

Default Expected soon

We have just been informed that the kits are expected sometime next week!

Jorn's looked very good at the Euro's, winning the first leg and coming second overall.

We have a preorder still available if anyone want to reserve one

Your information is wrong Brian.
i already have a manual - its just waiting for some minor parts numbers before we release it.
The car is going to be with us this month.

I've seen one of these in the flesh recently... from design point of view it's pretty clever and whatever it's like to drive one can only appreciate that a manufacturer is putting such a different concept on the market

@mkb: Is this for the endurance race tomorrow?

Yes tomorrow the 12th hour of arendonk

Hopefully he survives it.

The car drives like a schumacher cat sx2 (I've also had. With much rear grip)
